Swarm Robotics: From Sources of Inspiration to Domains of Application
Abstract:Swarm robotics is a novel approach to the coordination of large numbers of relatively simple robots which takes its inspiration from social insects. This paper proposes a definition to this newly emerging approach by 1) describing the desirable properties of swarm robotic systems, as observed in the system-level functioning of social insects, 2) proposing a definition for the term swarm robotics, and putting forward a set of criteria that can be used to distinguish swarm robotics research from other multi-robot studies, 3) providing a review of some studies which can act as sources of inspiration, and a list of promising domains for the utilization of swarm robotic systems.
摘要:群体机器人是一种从群居昆虫中获得灵感来协调大量相对简单的机器人的新方法。本文给出了这一新方法的定义:1)描述了群体机器人系统的理想特性,如社会昆虫的系统级功能;2)提出了群体机器人一词的定义,并提出了一套可用于区分群体机器人研究与其他多机器人研究的标准;3)回顾了一些可以作为灵感来源的研究,并列出了群体机器人系统的应用前景。
